Murphy's law, striking hard.
Good God, but today was a day of stuff not working the way it was supposed to.
We have no hot water in the building where I work. When we asked, we were told that we might get it back on Monday. Monday!
From noon until 2, we had no power at work. When you're a programmer, it's difficult to do anything when you have no power. For once, I didn't even have documentation owing that I could have started on paper. I used the time to clean my desk, and then played Bejeweled on my Palm.
I got home, and of the three elevators in our building, one was broken and on was on service, leaving only the slowest of the elevators to serve approximately 350 apartments. I waited 10 minutes, noticed the 4 women with strollers waiting for the next time the elevator stopped, and elected to take the stairs. I live on the 18TH floor. I made it, but I had to take a breather on the 9th floor. At least I got my exercise for the day, right?
Then, I go to wash my hands, and find that the hot water here is, at best, lukewarm.
Argh.
I think I'm going to bed now. Hopefully, things will be working tomorrow.

But, umm. The gym has hot water, right? It might be worthwhile to break down and use it, even though it's Not Your Favourite Thing ever.

Hopefully, the rest of the day will hold things that work, too.
